Improv WiFi Library

Improv is a free and open standard with ready-made SDKs that offer a great user experience to configure Wi-Fi on devices. More details here.

This library provides an easier way to handle the Improv serial protocol in your firmware, allowing you to configure the WiFi via web browser as in the following example.

Simplest use example:

#include <ImprovWiFiLibrary.h>
ImprovWiFi improvSerial(&Serial);
void setup() {
 improvSerial.setDeviceInfo(ImprovTypes::ChipFamily::CF_ESP32, "My-Device-9a4c2b", "2.1.5", "My Device");
}
void loop() { 
 improvSerial.handleSerial();
}

Bluetooth Support (Optional)

You can also use Improv over Bluetooth (uses about 25kb memory). BLE support is optional and must be explicitly enabled.

Enabling BLE Support

To enable BLE functionality, you need to:

1. Add the build flag to your platformio.ini:

   build_flags = -DIMPROV_WIFI_BLE_ENABLED
   

2. Add the NimBLE-Arduino dependency to your platformio.ini:

   lib_deps = h2zero/NimBLE-Arduino@^2.3.7
   

Note: BLE is not supported on ESP32-S2 and ESP32-C2 as these chips lack Bluetooth hardware. Only enable BLE for chips that support it (ESP32, ESP32-C3, ESP32-S3).

Example with BLE enabled:

#include <ImprovWiFiBLE.h>
ImprovWiFiBLE improvBLE;
void setup() {
 improvBLE.setDeviceInfo(ImprovTypes::ChipFamily::CF_ESP32, "My-Device-9a4c2b", "2.1.5", "My Device");
}
void loop() {
}

Using both Serial and BLE:

#include <ImprovWiFiLibrary.h>#ifdef IMPROV_WIFI_BLE_ENABLED
#include <ImprovWiFiBLE.h>#endif

ImprovWiFi improvSerial(&Serial);
#ifdef IMPROV_WIFI_BLE_ENABLED
ImprovWiFiBLE improvBLE;
#endif

void setup() {
 improvSerial.setDeviceInfo(ImprovTypes::ChipFamily::CF_ESP32, "My-Device-9a4c2b", "2.1.5", "My Device");
 #ifdef IMPROV_WIFI_BLE_ENABLED
 improvBLE.setDeviceInfo(ImprovTypes::ChipFamily::CF_ESP32, "My-Device-9a4c2b", "2.1.5", "My Device");
 #endif
}
void loop() {
 improvSerial.handleSerial();
}
